Belmont At The Big A: Thursday’s Pick 6 To Have $159,032 Carryover

The Thursday card at the Belmont at the Big A fall meet at Aqueduct in South Ozone Park, N.Y., will be bolstered by a double Pick 6 carryover of $159,032.18 after the multi-race wager went unsolved for the second consecutive card on Sunday's nine-race program.

The $1 Pick 6 returned $138.25 to bettors who selected 5-of-6 winners correctly.

The sequence started in Race 4 with Hall of Fame jockey Javier Castellano guiding Big Agenda [No. 6, $8.70] to a $25,000 claiming score for trainer Joe Sharp. Castellano completed a riding double in Race 5 as Cupid's Heart [No. 5, $3.10*] was an easy winner of the state-bred optional claimer for conditioner Bruce Levine.

The Mike Maker-trained New York-bred Run Curtis Run [No. 5, $8] overcame a compromised start in the Carle Place [Race 6] to earn his second lifetime stakes victory under expert handling from Jose Ortiz. Apprentice rider Jose Gomez scored his first of two wins on the day in Race 7 aboard Masked Marauder [No. 1, $7.50] for trainer Rudy Rodriguez in a $25,000 claiming sprint.

Gomez then guided the Natalia Lynch trainee Road to Remember [No. 10, $60] to upset a state-bred allowance sprinting six furlongs over the outer turf at odds of 29-1.

With only four horses covered in the final leg, Pebble Lane [No. 3X, $14] triggered the carryover with a gutsy re-rallying score in a $40,000 state-bred maiden claimer [Race 9] under Dylan Davis for trainer Rick Schosberg.

Thursday's Pick 6 sequence will begin in Race 4 [2:12 p.m. Eastern] on the nine-race card. First post is 12:35 p.m.

Bloodstock Agent Murray Friedlander, 98, Passes; Had Long Association With Ron McAnally

Murray Friedlander, a former trainer and bloodstock agent, died Oct. 22. He was 98.

Friedlander trained for such owners as Nelson Bunker Hunt, William Haggin Perry, and the Cohen family, owners of Pimlico. He won the 1974 Golden Gate Handicap with Acclimatization for Hunt.

Because of his familiarity with bloodstock in France, England, and elsewhere in Europe, Friedlander facilitated the purchase of many horses who found success in the U. S., including Amen II, winner of the Hollywood Derby, and the Del Mar Derby victor Daros.

Since the 1970s he scouted prospects for trainer Ron McAnally. The notable resulting purchases included Northern Spur, the 1995 Breeders' Cup Turf winner, and Dr Devious, bought as a birthday present for Sidney Craig to run in the 1992 Kentucky Derby. Although a disappointment in the Derby, he was sent back to his English trainer and won the Epsom Derby.

Friedlander was born and raised in Baltimore within sight of Pimlico, where he was introduced to the sport. He interrupted studies at the University of North Carolina during World War II to enlist in the U. S. Army. He served in Intelligence in China. Returning to U.N.C., he earned a B.A. degree and then decided to go to Paris to study at the Sorbonne.

In France, the lure of racing had Friedlander working with horses in the mornings, including with renowned trainer Francois Mathet, and attending classes in the afternoons. He returned to the United States where he trained on his own, as well as spending several years as assistant trainer to James Maloney in the era of Gamely, Princessnesian, Desert Law,  Boldnesian, Jacinto, and Dewan in the late 1960s.

He is survived by his daughter, Dr. Susanna Friedlander.
